Chapter 1294: 1293 midnight bell ringing

After dinner, Feng Jiao was so drunk he couldn’t even find north, and two hotel attendants supported him and put him into the car.

The bill was settled by Feng Jiao, although he was intoxicated, but before getting drunk, everyone had already coaxed his black card out of him, and after dinner, they just swiped his card.

Actually, there was no hurry to settle the bill because the hotel staff recognized Feng Jiao, they could just put it on his tab, and he could pay when he woke up. However, the hotel staff thought that Feng Jiao’s spending was too high tonight, and if the payment was delayed, it might lead to unnecessary trouble, so it was better to pay sooner rather than later.

“I’m telling you… I never dine with ordinary people…” Feng Jiao, sitting in the car, was still not behaving, babbling on, “It’s a great honor for you to have a meal with me…”

Jiang Min, who was quite repelled by him, shoved him into the car a bit more, then turned to Tan Rou, “Tan Rou, I’ll seriously think about what you said, and I hope we remain friends in the future.”

Tan Rou said, “Jiang Min, my senior, we have always been friends, so I hope you can find happiness.”

Jiang Min gave a bitter smile, “I hope so.”

After Jiang Min left, Shang Jin also finished vomiting; she wiped her mouth and asked groggily, “Did I throw up on that egomaniac?”

Tan Rou patted her face, “Your task is already completed.”

Shang Jin smiled, then fell asleep in her boyfriend’s arms.

Everyone was thinking of Jiang Min, hoping she could find true happiness, but Jiang Min was too stubborn. She wanted to do something for her family to repay them for raising her, even if it meant sacrificing everything.

“Was I being too meddlesome?” On the drive back, Tan Rou asked gloomily, “Jiang Min is a nice person, she took good care of me when I was in her research group. Moreover, after Shang Jin and the others graduated, Jiang Min didn’t make them join her new project but sent them to my company instead. Firstly to find a good job for Shang Jin and her friends, and secondly to send a few capable people my way.”

Zhuang Liu reassured her, “You’ve done what you could, the rest is up to her. If one day she regrets her decision and comes back to you, you can help her then.”

Tan Rou asked, “Zhuang Liu, do you have any projects in hands?”

Zhuang Liu smiled and said, “The Zhuang family owns so many companies, there’s definitely potential to collaborate with the Jiang family. But didn’t Jiang Min reject you already? Since she rejected your kindness, let’s not bother anymore.”

Not just the Zhuang family, the Tao family also has many projects that could collaborate with the Jiang family, it’s up to Jiang Min whether she wants to seek Tan Rou’s help.

“You’re right, let’s not worry about these things here.” Tan Rou said, “I should think about my own matters. Summer vacation is almost here, and my mall is also about to open. You must come as my special guest.”

Zhuang Liu said, “Not just as your special guest, even if you ask me to resign and watch the door of your mall, I would do it.”

Tan Rou laughed at his comment, “You come watch the door for me, and I’ll watch the door for you. Let’s experience what it’s like to work in our old age ahead of time.”

Zhuang Liu then said, “When we are fifty, we’ll hand over all our work to the younger generation, like how my parents and your parents are doing now, and then travel around the world together.”

Although Tan Rou enjoyed working, she didn’t want to work her entire life, so she was considering what Zhuang Liu suggested, but she thought fifty was too old, maybe retire at forty-eight instead.

Tomorrow Tan Rou had classes, and tonight she stayed overnight with Zhuang Liu at their house in the university town. Both were exhausted today, they did nothing and fell asleep as soon as they lay down.

However, in the middle of the night, a burst of urgent ringing woke them up. Tan Rou rolled out of bed quickly, and muted her phone, but Zhuang Liu had already woken up, so muting was useless. Usually, she would set her phone on silent before going to sleep, but they went to bed too early today, and she forgot to do it.

Zhuang Liu asked, “Who’s calling?”

“I didn’t get the chance to look yet.” Tan Rou unlocked her phone, looked at the call log, and was a bit surprised, “Huh, why would Jiang Min be calling me?”
